    Computing the Rabinowitz Floer homology of tentacular hyperboloids

    No full text
    We compute the Rabinowitz Floer homology for a class of non-compact hyperboloids ΣSn+k1×Rnk\Sigma\simeq S^{n+k-1}\times\mathbb{R}^{n-k}. Using an embedding of a compact sphere Σ0S2k1\Sigma_0\simeq S^{2k-1} into the hypersurface Σ\Sigma, we construct a chain map from the Floer complex of Σ\Sigma to the Floer complex of Σ0\Sigma_0. In contrast to the compact case, the Rabinowitz Floer homology groups of Σ\Sigma are both non-zero and not equal to its singular homology. As a consequence, we deduce that the Weinstein Conjecture holds for any strongly tentacular deformation of such a hyperboloid.Comment: v2: Fixed eleven typos in the titl

    Homoclinic Solutions of Nonlinear Laplacian Difference Equations Without Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz Condition

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to establish the existence of at least two non-zero homoclinic solutions for a nonlinear Laplacian difference equation without using Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz type-conditions. The main tools are mountain pass theorem and Palais-Smale compactness condition involving suitable functionals

    Reconstruction of Madagascar and Africa: evidence from the Davie Fracture Zone and Western Somali Basin

    No full text
    New seismic reflection, gravity, and magnetic data from offshore East Africa allow the Davie Fracture Zone to be traced from ?11°S to its intersection with the Kenyan coast at ?2°S, constraining the relative motion of Madagascar and Africa. Seasat-derived free air gravity anomalies and slope/rise positive magnetic anomalies observed in shipboard data help to locate the continent-ocean boundaries (COB) off the shore of East Africa and Madagascar. Seismic reflection data further document a diapirprovince off Madagascar, presumably conjugate to that observed off Kenya and Somalia. The Dhow and Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) basement ridges are complex features and do not appear to be simple fracture zones owing their existence entirely to the separation of Madagascar and Africa. From these data we determine a predrift fit of Madagascar and Africa involving a 14.2° rotation of Madagascar to Africa about a pole at 10°N, 150°E. The geometry of the reconstruction adheres to seismic and potential field data indicating the oceanic nature and extent of the Comoros Basin and of the Somali Basin between Kenya and the Seychelles, and it does not conflict with onshore or offshore stratigraphy. Timing of the opening of the Western Somali Basin is constrained by Mesozoic marine magnetic anomalies and extrapolation to the interpreted COB and occurred between approximately 165 and 130 Ma. <br/

    Wang’s multiplicity result for superlinear (p,q)(p,q)–equations without the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition

    No full text
    We consider a nonlinear elliptic equation driven by the sum of a pp--Laplacian and a qq--Laplacian where 1<q2p<1<q\leq2\leq p<\infty with a (p1)(p-1)--superlinear Carath\'eodory reaction term which doesn't satisfy the usual Ambrosetti--Rabinowitz condition. Using variational methods based on critical point theory together with techniques from Morse theory, we show that the problem has at leat three nontrivial solutions; among them one is positive and one is negative

    Superlinear problems without Ambrosetti and Rabinowitz growth condition

    No full text
    AbstractSuperlinear elliptic boundary value problems without Ambrosetti and Rabinowitz growth condition are considered. Existence of nontrivial solution result is established by combining some arguments used by Struwe and Tarantello and Schechter and Zou (also by Wang and Wei). Firstly, by using the mountain pass theorem due to Ambrosetti and Rabinowitz is constructed a solution for almost every parameter λ by varying the parameter λ. Then, it is considered the continuation of the solutions

    Crustal structure in the Western Somali Basin

    No full text
    As part of integrated marine geophysical studies in the Western Somali Basin, we performed 118 sonobuoy experiments to define better the crustal structure of the margins and basin created by the separation of Madagascar and Africa. After using T2/X2, conventional slope-intercept methods, and slant-stacked t-p techniques to analyse the data, we combined our solutions with all previous velocity information for the area. Velocity functions were derived for the sediment column, and we detected a high-velocity (4.58 ± 0.29 km s–1) sediment layer overlying acoustic basement. We confirmed that the crust is indeed seismically oceanic, and that it may be considered either in terms of a layered model – layers 2B (5.42 ± 0.19 km s–1), 2C (6.23 ± 0.22 km s–1), 3 (7.03 ± 0.25 km s–1), and mantle (7.85 ± 0.32 km s–1) were identified – or a more complex gradient model in which layer 2 is marked by a steeper velocity gradient than underlying layer 3. Integrated igneous crustal thicknesses (1.62 ± 0.22 s, 5.22 ± 0.64 km) are significantly less than what is considered normal. We present a revised seismic transect across the East African margin, as well as total sediment thickness, depth to basement and crustal thickness maps.<br/
